I have to euthanise my 3 year old boy today.

I rescued this 80 lb retriever/Doberman/what else, in March ‘26.
He knew no commands, didn’t know how to walk on a leash, and wasn’t housebroken.
I decided to invest in a training program considering the long life ahead of us.

I think he was deeply affected when I left him at the training kennel, although he loves the people and enjoys going back. When I came back he started doing backflips. He had finally found a home and was abandoned again, never expecting I would come back.

Upon picking him up he started becoming violently aggressive. He would go to attack anyone talking to me. It progressed to attacking anyone in the room. It was sudden and shocking in its intensity. There was no good advice except muzzles and Trazadone. That is no way to live.

So what can I do? He has a split personality. I called Lap of Love. What makes it so tragic is that he is so young, so healthy. Plus he is beautifully trained. Instead of taking him back to the shelter I called Lap of Love. Let him go at home. His home.
